I never understood the need for this feature.

At work, I handle 250+ new messages daily with heirloom-mailx as MUA.
I certainly cause a lot of errors but I am not aware of any error
flying by unseen, ever.  I make my error, get the message, done.

What am I doing wrong?

No, seriously:  I'd like to hear of settings/scenarios where
you'd miss an s-nail error, "pretty often" or not.

I use s-nail for about 12 mails per day there, with OPT_ERRORS=no.]
